Here are some of my favorites.
Number of games per system, 1950 - 2021 (based on the MobyGames database):
https://public.flourish.studio/visualisation/5041305/
Total sales of home consoles, grouped by brand, 1972 - 2019:
Unfortunately, there is no version including handheld + home consoles.
Total sales of handheld consoles, 1979 - 2019:
Unfortunately, there is no version including handheld + home consoles.
Total sales of handheld + home consoles, 2000 - 2020 (based on companies' annual reports and VGChartz data):
Bestselling video games, 1979 - 2020 (some versions cumulated):
Bestselling video games, 1989 - 2019 (bundled games excluded):
GPU share on Steam, 2004 - 2020 (based on Steam Stats):
GPUs sorted by performance, 2000 - 2020. There are a few bad data sets (f.e. GTX 260 faster than GTX 280 - 295), but still a nice visualization:
If you know other good gaming related "bar chart races", please add them!
